The three-day conference consists of three half-days of programming. If participants take part in a session at each time block November 16-18, they will have participated in 11 sessions.

The meeting attracts medical school deans, teaching hospital CEOs, medical school and teaching hospital faculty, researchers, administrators, residents and students.
At Learn Serve Lead 2020, our speakers will address the complicated crises our country and our world have experienced this year. We’ll delve into how COVID-19 has changed our medical schools and teaching hospitals, as well as how the pandemic has affected all of us individually on many levels. We’ll also dig deep into the long-standing racial injustices embedded in our society and our health care system and stimulate dialogue about ways we can combat systemic racism. We’ll discuss conscious and unconscious racial bias, overt discrimination, gender harassment, and inequities in academic medicine as we consider how to capitalize on the nation’s newfound momentum for change. Several sessions will be devoted to other pressing societal challenges both within and outside of medicine. Target Audience: MD/DOs, all specialties; Scientists/Researchers Educational Objectives At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:

The planners, speakers, and authors of this CME activity have been encouraged to address issues relevant in their topic area.
